Marc Johnson - Bass Desires
Johnson, on acoustic bass, brings together Bill Frisell and John Scofield on guitar, adds in Peter Erskine on drums, and you end up with one hell of a combo.
Melodic, funky, fun - and a great recording.

“Engine of Ruin” by Earth (2008)
https://songwhip.com/earth/engine-of-ruin
Allmusic.com is positively effusive in praise for this record, and they’re right.
Improbably slow tempos, droning guitars and simmering pianos and keys, it’s a slow burn that would not be out of place in a remake of a Leone Western.
Add the thrilling guitar work of #BillFrisell who guests on three tracks, including this one and, well, it hits all the right notes for me.

Bill Frisell - Valentine
A rare studio trio recording from Frisell. The liner notes indicate that he'd been touring with Royston and Morgan for years, and they popped into the studio to lay down tracks they'd played before, and some they hadn't.
It's quite interesting to hear them lock together and sometimes break apart, *almost* lose touch, and then find their way back.
It's nicely recorded, and pressed as expected from a Blue Note release.

“Big Log” by Viktor Krauss (2004)
https://songwhip.com/viktorkrauss/big-log
I was not aware of this cover of the #RobertPlant hit until this morning.
Music: it’s a bottomless well of wonder and discovery, eh?
Krauss covered it on his album Far From Enough with sister Alison – who recorded Raising Sand with Plant three years later – on vocals.
And, as if that weren’t enough - that’s the brilliant #BillFrisell on guitar.

Bill Frisell/Thomas Morgan at Moods, Zurich, April 25, 2023. Opening with a gorgeous slow-motion deconstruction of "Save the Last Dance for Me", the first set included a great "Days of Wine and Roses". The second was more engaged, incl. Monk's "Well You Needn't", which was followed by Strayhorn's "Lush Life". I think I also picked up some Bacharach on the way? The swampy encore segued into "On a Clear Day", I think.

I love Frisell's playing. He says so much with so few notes.
